Kudos to MoDot
Kudos to MoDot! They got all the water (and mud and debris washed up by the waters, plus the stoplights working again) from the flood over the weekend removed and the intersection of hwy 141 and interstate 44 open by Monday morning's rush hour! I had to back up and hear it again on the news (with our handy DVR) to make sure I heard right!

Signs of Spring - if only for a moment
Yesterday's high hit 65 degrees - what a welcome change from the cold, nasty weather we've had recently! Tom brewed a batch of beer, and we both walked around outside without coats and while wearing sandals.
Sadly, it looks like the nice weather isn't going to last - at least right now. Apparently we're supposed to get more snow this week:
Snow could shatter early springST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH03/02/2008
Enjoy the warm temperatures today, because winter could come roaring back into the St. Louis area Monday night.
A high of 70 or more is predicted for today -- but then watch out. The National Weather Service has issued a winter storm watch for the region for Monday evening through Tuesday afternoon, with a return of nasty weather possible in two separate waves.
The first could develop Monday night, bringing more sleet and snow, with possibly heavy accumulations of sleet. Then on Tuesday, as cold air settles over the St. Louis area, a second round of winter is expected with heavy snow.
Forecasters say the weather system that will be approaching the area could change quickly, so the outlook is uncertain.
